SPELLING There have been two county spelling tests this year, in which Alma Weeks and Walter VanDenburg received the highest standings. They tried a test of fifty words, given by Mr. Elder, to determine which one would represent the' school at the county contest to be held at Liverpool. Alma Weeks was chosen. On two different mornings, an old-fashioned spell-down was held in which about twenty of the best spellers took part. Lena Loope was the winner in the last one. . . Mr. Kyne has offered two prizes for the best spellers in the school, the first prize being a seventy-five dollar scholarship, and the second, a fifty dollar scholarship to Central City Business School.
